    She’s putting the tree up, I’m staying well out of the ****ing way, there’s always a tantrum, usually about lights.

    Interesting all this.

    Lights and tree are mine, she does the rest of the house.

    My daughter usually helps with the tree, so I spend half my time taking the tat that she has put on, off again.

    Stuck the F1 on until the Newcastle win. No idea what’s going on.

    Watched the F1, absolutely boss, best season in that sport that I can remember. I lost interest in it for years after being an avid fan when I was young, but the last couple of seasons have been much more competitive and this season has been superb. Incredible ending today.

    Back off the darts, or I won’t be responsible for my actions.

    I got no interest in it never have but heard all the hype about this saudi race that was before today, heard a few people after it say if you've never been into f1 that's the race to get you hooked so i put the highlights of it on last night, couldn't understand any of it tbh, what hapoened to the bloke in front winning and the bloke behind being 2nd, i saw all kinds of things i had no idea about like summin called dns, not over taking, overtaking, giving places back?

    I was baffled <laugh>

    How can you make a car race so fukin complicated was my take away tbh

    Haha, that Saudi race was particularly complex lol, red flags all over the shop and the race director / stewards having all sorts of decisions to make.

    It’s DRS and it stands for Drag reduction system. It’s basically a flap opening on the rear wing that gives the car a higher straight line speed on the long straights. It only activates when the car behind is within a second of the car in front, it was brought in to increase over taking.
